Best Restaurants in Monterey

We're headed to Monterey for the annual car show this weekend. Food seems to be hit-or-miss in downtown Monterey. We've had amazing food at Stoke's Adobe, then were disappointed when we went back. We're looking for anything but stuffy, old-fashioined food, like Fresh Cream. Any suggestions?

I also agree with Passionfish. There have been a couple reviews recently you might fell are helpful.

Other spots would be:Tarpy's Roadhouse on Mtry/Salinas HwyMontrio Bistro (one street up from Alvarado)for a no frills dinner Hula's on LighthouseIf you head into Carmelgive Luca's a tryor Wickets at BernardusSorry, I know this is a little late.
